< Hisqiʼeel 30 >

1 Ergasii dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
The LORD’s word came again to me, saying,
2 “Yaa ilma namaa raaji; akkanas jedhi; ‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “‘Wawwaadhuutii akkana jedhi; “Guyyaa sanaaf wayyoo!”
“Son of man, prophesy, and say, ‘The Lord GOD says: “Wail, ‘Alas for the day!’
3 Guyyaan sun dhiʼoo dha; Guyyaan Waaqayyoo dhiʼoo dha; innis guyyaa duumessaa, sabootaaf immoo yeroo badiisaa ni taʼa.
For the day is near, even the LORD’s day is near. It will be a day of clouds, a time of the nations.
4 Gibxitti goraadeen ni dhufa; Itoophiyaatti immoo dhiphinni ni dhufa. Yommuu warri qalaman Gibxi keessatti kukkufanitti, qabeenyi ishee saamamee fudhatama; hundeewwan ishee immoo ni diigamu.
A sword will come on Egypt, and anguish will be in Ethiopia, when the slain fall in Egypt. They take away her multitude, and her foundations are broken down.
5 Itoophiyaa fi Fuuxi, Luudii fi biyyi Arabaa hundi, Liibiyaa fi uummanni biyya kakuu Gibxi wajjin goraadeedhaan ni dhumu.
“‘“Ethiopia, Put, Lud, all the mixed people, Cub, and the children of the land that is allied with them, will fall with them by the sword.”
6 “‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “‘Tumsitoonni Gibxi ni kufu; humni isheen ittiin boontu ni dadhaba. Migdoolii hamma Aswaanitti, isaan ishee keessatti goraadeedhaan ni dhumu, jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.
“‘The LORD says: “They also who uphold Egypt will fall. The pride of her power will come down. They will fall by the sword in it from the tower of Seveneh,” says the Lord GOD.
7 Isaan biyyoota onan gidduutti, onanii hafu; magaalaawwan isaaniis magaalaawwan diigaman gidduutti argamu.
“They will be desolate in the middle of the countries that are desolate. Her cities will be among the cities that are wasted.
8 Yommuu ani Gibxitti ibidda qabsiisee warri ishee gargaaran hundi barbadaaʼanitti, isaan akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.
They will know that I am the LORD when I have set a fire in Egypt, and all her helpers are destroyed.
9 “‘Gaafas namoota Itoophiyaa kanneen yaaddoo malee jiraatan sodaachisuuf, ergamoonni dooniidhaan na biraa ni baʼu. Guyyaa badiisa Gibxitti dhiphinni isaan qabata; wanni kun dhugumaan ni dhufaatii.
“‘“In that day messengers will go out from before me in ships to make the careless Ethiopians afraid. There will be anguish on them, as in the day of Egypt; for, behold, it comes.”
10 “‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “‘Ani harka Nebukadnezar mooticha Baabiloniin namoota Gibxi hedduu nan barbadeessa.
“‘The Lord GOD says: “I will also make the multitude of Egypt to cease, by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
11 Innii fi loltoonni isaa kanneen saboota keessaa akka malee hamoo taʼan, akka biyyattii balleessaniif ni fidamu. Isaanis goraadee isaanii Gibxitti luqqifatanii reeffaan biyyattii guutu.
He and his people with him, the terrible of the nations, will be brought in to destroy the land. They will draw their swords against Egypt, and fill the land with the slain.
12 Ani bishaan Abbayyaa nan gogsa; biyyattiis namoota hamootti nan gurgura; harka alagootaatiin biyyattii fi waan ishee keessa jiru hunda nan onsa. Ani Waaqayyo dubbadheera.
I will make the rivers dry, and will sell the land into the hand of evil men. I will make the land desolate, and all that is therein, by the hand of foreigners. I, the LORD, have spoken it.”
13 “‘Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “‘Ani waaqota tolfamoo nan balleessa; fakkiiwwan Memfiis keessa jiranis nan facaasa. Siʼachi Gibxi keessatti bulchaan hin argamu; biyyattii guutuu keessas sodaa nan buusa.
“‘The Lord GOD says: “I will also destroy the idols, and I will cause the images to cease from Memphis. There will be no more a prince from the land of Egypt. I will put a fear in the land of Egypt.
14 Phaxroosin nan onsa; Zooʼaanitti ibidda nan qabsiisa; Tebesiin immoo nan adaba.
I will make Pathros desolate, and will set a fire in Zoan, and will execute judgments on No.
15 Daʼannoo Gibxi jabaa jechuunis Siin irratti dheekkamsa koo nan dhangalaasa; uummata Tebesi hedduu sana illee nan balleessa.
I will pour my wrath on Sin, the stronghold of Egypt. I will cut off the multitude of No.
16 Ani Gibxitti ibidda nan qabsiisa; Siin dhiphinaan raafamti. Tebesi dambaliidhaan ni fudhatamti; Memfiis dhiphina wal irraa hin cinneen ni dhiphatti.
I will set a fire in Egypt Sin will be in great anguish. No will be broken up. Memphis will have adversaries in the daytime.
17 Dargaggoonni Aawwenii fi Phii-Beseti goraadeedhaan dhumu; magaalaawwan mataan isaanii iyyuu ni boojiʼamu.
The young men of Aven and of Pibeseth will fall by the sword. They will go into captivity.
18 Yommuu ani waanjoo Gibxi cabsutti, Tahiphaanheesitti guyyaan ni dukkanaaʼa; humni isheen ittiin boontus ni laafa. Isheen hurriidhaan haguugamti; gandoonni ishee immoo ni boojiʼamu.
At Tehaphnehes also the day will withdraw itself, when I break the yokes of Egypt there. The pride of her power will cease in her. As for her, a cloud will cover her, and her daughters will go into captivity.
19 Kanaafuu ani Gibxiin nan adaba; isaanis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.’”
Thus I will execute judgments on Egypt. Then they will know that I am the LORD.”’”
20 Waggaa kudha tokkoffaatti, jiʼa tokkoffaa keessa, guyyaa torbaffaatti dubbiin Waaqayyoo akkana jedhee gara koo dhufe:
In the eleventh year, in the first month, in the seventh day of the month, the LORD’s word came to me, saying,
21 “Yaa ilma namaa, ani irree Faraʼoon mooticha Gibxi cabseera. Inni akka fayyuuf hin hidhamne yookaan shambaqqoon hidhamee akka jabaatee goraadee qabachuu dandaʼu hin godhamne.
“Son of man, I have broken the arm of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Behold, it has not been bound up, to apply medicines, to put a bandage to bind it, that it may become strong to hold the sword.
22 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: Ani Faraʼoon mooticha Gibxitti kaʼeera. Ani irree isaa lachanuu, isa fayyaa, isa cabe sana illee cabsee akka goraadeen harka isaatii buʼu nan godha.
Therefore the Lord GOD says: ‘Behold, I am against Pharaoh king of Egypt, and will break his arms, the strong arm, and that which was broken. I will cause the sword to fall out of his hand.
23 Ani namoota Gibxi saboota gidduutti nan faffacaasa; biyyoota keessas isaan nan bibittinneessa.
I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations, and will disperse them through the countries.
24 Irree mootii Baabilon nan jabeessa; goraadee koos harka isaa keessa nan kaaʼa; irree Faraʼoon garuu nan cabsa; innis fuula isaa duratti akkuma nama akka malee madaaʼeetti ni aada.
I will strengthen the arms of the king of Babylon, and put my sword in his hand; but I will break the arms of Pharaoh, and he will groan before the king of Babylon with the groaning of a mortally wounded man.
25 Irree mootii Baabilon nan jabeessa; irreen Faraʼoon garuu ni laafa. Yommuu ani goraadee koo harka mootii Baabilon keessa kaaʼee inni immoo Gibxitti isa mirmirsutti isaan akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.
I will hold up the arms of the king of Babylon, but the arms of Pharaoh will fall down. Then they will know that I am the LORD when I put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he stretches it out on the land of Egypt.
26 Ani namoota Gibxi saboota gidduu nan faffacaasa; biyyoota keessas isaan nan bibittinneessa. Isaanis akka ani Waaqayyo taʼe ni beeku.”
I will scatter the Egyptians among the nations and disperse them through the countries. Then they will know that I am the LORD.’”
